I am curious as to what myth is being referenced by Coty Winter?

Fiori was definitely my favorite this round, followed by Ra Muw. Princessa made me laugh, as usual.

Byronic Heroine over on the Dal house forum says it's an Aztec creation myth. Here's a little synopsis from Wikipedia...

In one of the Aztec accounts of creation, Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca joined forces to create the world. Before their act there was only the sea and the crocodilian earthmonster called Cipactli.[25] To attract her, Tezcatlipoca used his foot as bait, and Cipactli ate it.[25] The two gods then captured her, and distorted her to make the land from her body. After that, they created the people, and people had to offer sacrifices to comfort Cipactli for her sufferings. Because of this, Tezcatlipoca is depicted with a missing foot.[25]
